About this tour
Immerse yourself in the most exciting underwater adventure in the Mexican Caribbean! Swim with the biggest fish in the world and experience these humbling gentle giants up close. Also enjoy the crossing where you can see playful dolphins and stingrays in their natural habitat.
Take a boat ride out to see them and you will be able to safely swim and snorkel alongside these magnificent creatures.
The whale sharks are an unforgettable sight, as they glide along the surface, their mouths opening up to 5ft wide to feed on plankton.
These gentle giants of the deep, known to reach up to 40ft in length, can be found in the waters around Isla Mujeres, Contoy and Holbox. Each whale shark has its own unique set of spots and stripes and has a lifespan of up to 70 years.
